Great New Lamps...

Loving these fun, new lamps!

The rich, textured burlap shade provides a lovely and natural contrast to the smooth sea-glass-like base.

Trend Alert: Idea in a Bottle

We've always admired those who find renewed beauty in old things. We've recently been inspired by the inventive ways lighting designers have re-purposed old wine bottles to create one-of-a-kind chandeliers.

Aren't these gorgeous? I love the way the light is diffused by the rich, green bottle glass, and how the labels start to tell a story of memorable past events.

Many Napa restaurants have embraced this trend.

Here you can see the chandeliers featured beneath the archways in the portico of Rotisserie and Wine.

Pizza Azzuro put a contemporary/vintage spin on the idea with their clear wine bottle pendants fitted with filament bulbs.

Of course, the re-use of wine elements in lighting is not limited to just the bottles...

The juxtaposition of tear-drop crystals dangling beneath a rustic wine barrel canopy is stunning in Tyler Florence's kitchen shop

We got a bit creative and used the wine barrel straps and twinkling white lights to create these inexpensive, sparkling spheres. 

At Harvest, we've got the framework to help you create your own unique wine bottle chandelier.

Ours comes pre-wired and ready to hang, and it is so reasonably priced at just $185.00! (less 20% during our Summer Sale!)

So, cheers to you! ...and drink up!

These chandeliers aren't going to fill themselves! :)

Fun, Alternative Chandelier

These awesome orbs will soon grace the stores with their presence. This little DIY chandelier alternative received tons of praise in our Old Lumber showroom, and we can't wait to share the idea with all of you at Harvest. The crafty fixture is made from recycled wine barrel straps, bolted together to form a sphere and wrapped in twinkling lights to create a one-of-a-kind chandelier!

These pieces will be available for sale through Harvest while we have them in stock. They would make a charming accent above your outdoor dining area this summer!

What do you think?

Too industrial for Harvest homes? or

Something we should carry in the stores?

Lamps We Love...

After turning back the clock a few weeks ago, it seems that night falls earlier everyday. To overcome the darkness and help you bring the warmth of lamplight back into your home, we've stocked up on all kinds of fantastic fixtures.

Here are some Lamps We Love...

Bright ideas...

I just met a lovely couple in our Menlo Park store last night. They were admiring our awesome pendants above the cash-wrap counter, (also featured in the window in Burlingame). Our conversation inspired me to showcase these unique fixtures here on the blog. The clear shades reveal the filament lightbulbs and create a vintage, industrial appeal. The bulbs burn low and last forever. Where will you install them in your home?
